Consumer Description

Upon startup, the engine produces a loud “rattle” sound. It has consistently gotten worse. My local Ford dealer advised this is called a “phaser” for the camshafts and that they have failed. Ford has already issued a recall for this problem on trucks like mine, but for unknown reasons, my truck is NOT included. I have been advised that it is only a matter of time until there is a catastrophic engine failure. It has already been demonstrated that this part is defective, yet Ford refuses to address the problem in its entirety. I want Ford to honor their commitment and repair ALL affected trucks with these defective parts.
